Bio II Chap 24 Rvw

Biology II Chapter 24 Review

QuestionAnswer
Compare and contrast vertebrate and invertebrate (include endoskeleton and exoskeleton in your explanation and specific examples). A vertebrate is an animal with a backbone (these animals usually have an endoskeleton). Ex: a squirrel. An invertebrate is an animal without a backbone (these animals usually have exoskeletons). Ex: a cicada.
Explain sexual reproduction and the methods that accomplish it. Sexual reproduction happens when there is a male animal to produce sperm & a female animal to produce eggs (or hermaphroditic animals for both). The sperm penetrates the egg to form a zygote. This fertilization can occur internally or externally.
Explain asexual reproduction and the methods that accomplish it. Asexual reproduction happens when a single parent animal produces offspring that are genetically identical to itself. This reproduction can come in the form of budding, fragmentation, regeneration, and parthenogenesis.
Be able to label the stages of early development. Sperm, Egg, Fertilization, 2-cell stage, 16-cell stage, Blastula, Gastrula
Describe each layer of tissue development. Ecto- outer layer; becomes skin/nervous tissue Meso- between endo/ectoderm; becomes muscle tissue & circulatoryexcretory/espiratory systems Endo- inner layer of cells in the gastrula; becomes the digestive organs & digestive tract lining
Compare and contrast each type of symmetry and give specific examples for each. Asymmetry- irregular shape,no balance in structure. (Sponge) Radial- can be divided among any plane through a central axis, into roughly equal halves. (Jellyfish) Bilateral- mirror image halves only along one plane through a central axis. (Hummingbird)
Describe the 3 body cavities that animals can develop. Coelom- formed from mesoderm that lines & encloses the organs in coelom. Pseudocoelom- fluid-filled cavity between the mesoderm & the endoderm. Acoelom- solid bodies w/ no fluid-filled cavity between the gut & body wall.
Give an example of each of the 3 body types that animals can develop. Coelomate; a human-- Pseudocoelomate; a roundworm-- Acoelomate; a flatworm
Compare and contrast development in coelomate animals. Coelomate animals can either be protostomes or deuterostomes. In a protostome, the mouth develops from the first opening in the gastrula. In a deuterostome, the anus develops from the first opening in the gastrula.
Explain how a sponge feeds. A sponge feeds by “filter feeding”. This means the organism gets food by filtering small particles from the water.
What are archaeocytes and how do they help the sponge? Archaeocytes are amoeba-like cells that help the sponge with digestion, the production of eggs/sperm, and excretion. Archaeocytes can also secrete spicules.
How does a sponge respond to stimuli? Why? A sponge does not have a nervous system, so they use their epithelial-like cells to detect external stimuli and respond by closing the sponges pores to stop the water flow.
Explain asexual reproduction in a sponge. Fragmentation (a broken piece of sponge develops into a new sponge), budding (a small growth breaks off, settles, and forms a new sponge), or by producing gemmules (contain sponge cells that survive and eventually grow again).
Explain sexual reproduction in a sponge. Sexual reproduction in a sponge comes through (mostly) hermaphroditic behavior. The fertilized eggs stay in the sponge while the sperm is released into the water. When the sperm reaches a sponge it fertilizes the egg and reproduction occurs normally
What is the phylum name for a sponge? Porifera
What is the phylum name for a cnidarian? Cnidaria
Explain the body structure of a cnidarian. Cnidarians have one body opening and (most) have 2 layers of cells. The outer layer of cells protects the internal body and the inner layer functions in digestion. Cnidarians also have symmetry.
Explain how a cnidarian feeds. A cnidarian feeds by stinging its prey and paralyzing it and then breaking it down with digestive acids to eat it because it cannot chew its food.
How does a cnidarian respond to stimuli? A cnidarian responds to stimuli by using its nervous system called a nerve net to conduct impulses to and from all parts of the organism. These impulses can cause contractions in the cnidarian’s muscles.
Explain the 2 body types of a cnidarian. The two body types of a cnidarian are a polyp and a medusa. A polyp is sessile and it has a tube-shaped body and a mouth surrounded by tentacles, and a medusa is free-floating and it has an umbrella-shaped body and tentacles that hang down.
Explain the reproduction of a cnidarian. Cnidarians at the medusa stage release eggs and sperm into the water where fertilization occurs. Then the zygotes develop into free-floating larvae that grow into polyps which reproduce asexually to form new medusae.
